Is it possible to agree with the idea of the critic Pisarev that Pavel Kirsanov is a hero of the Pechorin type. Pavel Petrovich – “Pechorin of small sizes”

The heroes of Lermontov and Turgenev - Grigory Aleksandrovich Pechorin and Pavel Petrovich Kirsanov - are people belonging to the same social group, but living in different time. After the massacre of the Decembrists in 1825, the time came for the generation about which M. Yu. Lermontov wrote: “... the cowardly is shameful before danger and despicable slaves before power...” This is not said about all the young and mature - Pechorin can and should be spoken of as extraordinary personality, like a very interesting person. This is how M. Yu. Lermontov shows it when he draws unusual portrait Pechorin, talks about his actions, about his friendship with Dr. Werner, about only love Pechorin to Vera Litovskaya, about the hero’s desire to find his place in life. You may or may not like Pechorin, but you cannot remain indifferent to him. The hero appeals to some with his straightforwardness, but offends others; some like his sincerity, while others see cruelty in it. Two or three episodes from the life of the hero M. Yu. Lermontov remain in the reader’s memory as an example of the hero’s honesty and decency, for example, an explanation with Princess Mary, and a duel with Grushnitsky, when Pechorin gives a person a chance to admit his mistakes and avoid a duel. But in the scene of farewell to Maxim Maksimych - cold, cruel - it seems that no one likes Pechorin, and rightly so.

There is essentially nothing to say about Pavel Petrovich Kirsanov... Pose is a very short description of his behavior. But there are points that deserve the reader's attention. In his dispute with Bazarov, Pavel Petrovich is right when he asserts that life, with its ready-made, historically grown forms, can be smarter individual person or groups of persons. Pavel Petrovich reproaches Bazarov for contempt for the people, the nihilist parries the reproach: “Well, if he deserves contempt!” Kirsanov talks about Schiller and Goethe, Bazarov exclaims: “A decent chemist is twenty times more useful than any poet!” etc. But if Pavel Petrovich comes to belittling the human personality in front of accepted principles, then Bazarov asserts his own personality at the cost of destroying authorities.

Pavel Petrovich's youth passed in the 1830s in an atmosphere of mute reaction, mature years coincided with the period of the “dark seven years”. He fails to understand the requirements new era, views younger generation are deeply alien to him. As Turgenev wrote: “Look into the faces of the “fathers” - weakness and lethargy or limitation.” Pavel Petrovich considers himself a liberal and a lover of progress. He talks a lot about the public good, but Bazarov is right when he tells him: “... you respect yourself and sit with your hands folded; What is the use of this? All of Pavel Petrovich’s principles boil down to one thing: to protect the old order.

Do these people – Pechorin and Pavel Petrovich – have anything in common? What allowed D.I. Pisarev to compare Pavel Petrovich Kirsanov with Pechorin “ small size"? First of all, I think, character traits: selfishness, conceit, indisputability in judgments, manner of dressing, behavior in society... In matters of principle, one should not, one simply cannot compare Pavel Petrovich with Pechorin.

At the end of the novel, I. S. Turgenev, talking about P. P. Kirsanov’s stay in Dresden, seems to put an end to this comparison: “...between two and four o’clock, at the most fashionable time for a walk, you can meet a man about fifty years old... elegantly dressed... This is Pavel Petrovich. Here he gets acquainted more with the British and with visiting Russians, in conversation with whom he gives free rein to his bile... He doesn’t read anything Russian, but on his desk there is a silver ashtray in the shape of a peasant’s bast shoe. It's still making noise..."

That's all. In the preface to the novel “Hero of Our Time,” M. Yu. Lermontov offered the reader the following observation: “The history of the human soul, at least petty soul, almost more curious and not more useful than history a whole people." This can be attributed to Pechorin, but not to Pavel Petrovich Kirsanov, I am not interested in him. So judge: does the elder Kirsanov look like “little Pechorin”? No, of course not! With all due respect to the judgments of Dmitry Ivanovich Pisarev...

I think the critic is right in his assessment. Turgenev deliberately emphasized the image of Bazarov with the help of dialogues. Disputes provide an opportunity to gain deeper understanding life principles characters. The main opponent of the hero is retired officer Kirsanov. The author confronts two extremes in the novel - a nihilist and an aristocrat, showing the need to find a golden mean.

Pavel Petrovich is about 45 years old.

He was born at the same time as Lermontov, his personality was formed in the 30s, in an atmosphere that gave birth to “superfluous” people like Pechorin. This is probably what an aged Lermontov hero would look like. In his youth, Pavel Petrovich was also characterized by skepticism, bile, “proud contempt” and seething “in empty action.” Drawing the image of Kirsanov, Turgenev notes that he was self-confident and mocking; brilliant career, But fatal love changed the fate of the nobleman.

The novel is permeated with ideological disputes. Compositionally in artistically The scene of the argument between the heroes in the tenth chapter is important. Pavel Petrovich proves: only empty and immoral people can live without “principles.” It is necessary to be guided by clear rules, even if they have become obsolete. Evgeniy Vasilyevich retorts that “principle” is a meaningless foreign word. In response to Kirsanov’s contempt for the people, Bazarov straightforwardly explains his attitude towards the ignorant peasant: “Well, if he deserves contempt!”

The author is attracted to the hero’s open radicalism by the lack of pretense, contempt for pompous phrases and impulse towards practical matters. Evgeniy is strong in denouncing Kirsanov’s conservatism, in criticizing the idle talk and lordly effeminacy of Russian liberals. He rightly notes that Pavel Petrovich is operating with clever words, but sits idly by.

The resolution of the ideological dispute occurs only in the 24th chapter, which tells of a duel between opponents. This episode was a natural consequence of the development of the plot. After the duel, Kirsanov Sr. confesses to his brother: “I’m starting to think that Bazarov was right when he reproached me for aristocracy.” In his opinion, it’s time for middle-aged people to stop breaking down and think about society; they need to put vanity aside.

At the end of the novel, Turgenev pronounces his verdict on conservatism, describing how Pavel Petrovich moistened his forehead with cologne and lay down: “... his emaciated head lay on a white pillow, like the head of a dead man... Yes, he was a dead man.” This sentence is the final point in the dispute between old and new, which was set by the author himself.
